    Great video! Thanks to you I am also using this technique on my pens now! Used to use only ca glue and HUT polish, now I added Yorkshire Grit Microfine in between (Ack's unfortunately not available in South Africa) and it's amazing what difference the microfine paste does!

    Absolutely loved this video - following your advice which was brilliantly presented and so easy to follow, I have made my first pen using CA. It was made from gnarly elm and I used gold leaf to fill the pores of the wood. Delighted at the result but it was your instruction that made it possible :)

    Great tutorial and step-by-step process on how to. That said, not all of us have a lathe with a speed control, so trying to follow your guidance will require changing the belt on the pulleys. Not really practical for this process. Can we just keep in at a low speed until it's time to sand at which time we can crank up the rpms? Cheers!

    • @MadNerdWorkshop
      @MadNerdWorkshop  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You absolutely can do that. You can even sand at slower speeds, it will just take a little longer.

    When you wet sand the wood blanks, how do you keep the water from soaking into the ends of the finished wood?
    Very well done instructions, thanks.

    • @MadNerdWorkshop
      @MadNerdWorkshop  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The CA glue will form a tight seal around the bushings keeping the water out. Thanks Aaron and thanks for watching.

    Great Video!
    But i have one question: How do you remove the finished peices from your mandrel? Didn´t they stick to the bushings? I ask because i want to try out that type of finish myself, and here in germany, we can hardly get any non-sticking bushings.
    Have a nice day :)

    • @MadNerdWorkshop
      @MadNerdWorkshop  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They stick a little, but quickly separate. I have the non-stick bushings and I never use them. The CA builds up under the ends and requires a good amount of sanding to get them smooth. I just use the metal bushings.
